Tell Me Something Tuesday (#1)


and what a Tuesday it was.

(Stolen unabashedly from A Belle's Tales):
"Tell Me Something Tuesday is hosted by author and book blogger Cambria Hebert. Every week, Cambria will ask a new question, and participants will post their answers and leave their link on her site. Then, bloggers can compare their answers while visiting all the lovely blogs. Leave me a comment - I can’t wait to stop by your blog and find out your answer!"

This week’s question: What is the saddest book you have ever read?


I know many people said the Hunger Games, by Suzanne Collins, and I'm pretty sure I did cry a bit with that one. But the real tearjerker of that series has got to be Mockingjay. I couldn't put it down, leaving me literally sobbing ONTO my iPad at 3:15 am.




And if that's not sad enough...I remember reading Running in the Rain, by Garth Stein on a van ride to a scientific conference, and even when I saw it coming still BAWLED my face off. (Thanks, Brad.)




Sometimes we all need one of those soul-cleansing cries, and I hope that when you do, you check out one of these books or any of the other great reads listed over on Cambria's site!
